Most people's idea of love is based on certain
conditions they think another person, and sometimes
even God must do, or not do in order for them to
respond with love, but according to the Bible this
is not the truth.

Now here's a clue.

Bible Love Verse #1

Proverbs 3:3 Let not mercy and truth forsake thee:
bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table
of thine heart:

And here's the problem.

You know those overwhelming feelings you get when
someone does something bad to you.

Well that person not being aware of the truth can
easily justify their wrong doing based on something
they thought you did wrong or your attitude towards
them.

It may not sound fair but the bibles definition of
love is to set your mind to do what's right no
matter if someone apologizes, feels remorseful, or
even cares at all or not.

Bible Love Verse #2

And by doing this God will take care of the rest at
the appropriate time in your favor.

Bible Love Verse #3

Proverbs 19:11 The discretion of a man deferreth his
anger; and it is his glory to pass over a
transgression.

But it takes a considerable amount of study to
renew your mind, so you can get it to come out of
your mouth in order to change how you respond in
extreme situations like that.

And I'll even let you in on a little secret.

Learning to practice love is like riding a bike,
you're probably going to fall and scrape up your
knees for a while but once you get the hang of it
you can just get on and go.

Bible Love Verse #4

Proverbs 17:9 He that covereth a transgression
seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter
separateth very friends.

When I first began to practice love I remember how I
imagined a scenario that would make it ok for me to
forgive something someone did wrong to me.

I even prayed about it and everything.

But when it didn't turn out the way I imagined it
should I didn't respond in love and fell and scraped
my knees.

I'm not all the way there but now that I understand
that being compassionate, merciful, and forgiving is
what love truly is I find myself being able to not
dwell on the hurt that gets done to me in order to
focus on the goodness of God by responding in love.

Bible Love Verse #5

Jesus even said.

Matthew 5:46 For if ye love them which love you,
what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the
same?
